2:30 PM EST. Marquette features arguably the most high profile baller in the country at the moment in Markus Howard. True stars in college hoops are hard to come by, but Howard has hit the mainstream this season. Additionally, the Golden Eagles are ranked higher than Villanova despite having the same record, but the Wildcats have played a non-conference schedule that ranks 100 spots higher. This will be a true test to see just how far the Golden Eagles have come in 2018-19, but the Wildcats are not likely to give up their spot at the top of the Big East without a fight.

Villanova is a true power and needs no introduction here, as they are the defending national champions and have been a staple in the market for quite some time, but value is value and the Wildcats are being discounted here. They are also being disrespected by both the market and oddsmakers and you know what they say about letting sleeping dogs lie. The Wildcats wake up here.
